The Pulpit Inn, Portland

I must admit to being a bit hacked off with this place. If you run a pub at such a location as Portland Bill, then you are catering for the tourist trade. You must be - there's no locals. The local tea shop was swarming at 2.30pm on the Tuesday after a bank Holiday. This place was closed. Normally I'd not rate a place I've not been in, but I walked nine miles to find the pub was closed.

With extensive sea views, given nice weather, The Pulpit is a very nice place to spend a hour or so. Well kept beers and an extensive menu including salads, steaks and of course fish and chips. (You order the food at the bar and collect it when your name is called over the tannoy!). The decor of the pub is olde worlde and hides the fact the Pulpit was only built in the 1950's. Large car park, children's play area and disabled friendly
